What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beehive Homes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Beehive Homes will provide reasonable assistance to the franchisee regarding operational, facilities, and marketing issues. Beehive Homes representatives are available to consult with the franchisee during the operation of the Beehive Homes location.
The terms for this operational assistance, including any additional compensation, are determined by mutual agreement between Beehive Homes and the franchisee. This means that the franchisee and Beehive Homes must both agree on the cost and scope of the assistance provided.
This arrangement is fairly typical in franchising, where franchisors offer ongoing support but may charge extra for specialized or extended assistance beyond the initial training and setup. It is important for a prospective franchisee to discuss with Beehive Homes what specific situations might require additional operational assistance, how the costs are calculated (e.g., hourly rate, project-based fee), and to get an estimate of potential expenses for this support.
